UCL governance and committees

UCL’s governance structure includes the Council, the Academic Board and a
formal committee structure. The Council is UCL’s governing body and
Academic Board its senior academic authority. The operational management
of UCL is the responsibility of the Provost’s Senior Management Team (SMT).

These pages contain information about Council, Academic Board
and UCL's standing committees, including
details of their constitutions and memberships, terms of reference and
dates of meetings. Non-confidential minutes of formal committee meetings are also available.

UCL adopts and pursues an explicitly academic-led quality management and
enhancement (QME) strategy, which reflects our recognition that the
active and critical engagement of our academic staff is central to the
fulfilment of our mission. The key features of this academic-led
approach are detailed here.

UCL has adopted a set of research
governance policies and procedures which underpins UCL’s
expectations for the conduct of research and defines action to be taken
in the event that an individual is suspected or accused of research
misconduct.
